International Org/Dev/Coop / hunanitarian aid / UE
English term or phrase: commitment / engagement
A ***commitment *** across all EU institutions to principled humanitarian ***engagement** and a shared undertaking not to use humanitarian aid as a crisis management tool will provide the strongest foundation for the provision of effective assistance to those affected by disaster and maintain the image of the EU as a quality humanitarian donor at a global level.

Pour moi, les deux mots sont synonyme mais j'ai du mal à traduire cette nuance. Merci!

Explanation:
Dans ce contexte, c'est par analogie avec « aide/action humanitaire reposant sur des principes ».
Une autre solution en tout cas.

agree  Maryline Pinton: Plutôt action ici, puisque le mot "aide" sera nécessaire dans la suite de la phrase.

neutral  Kevin SC: le terme engagement renvoie davantage à la notion d"involvement", à mon avis
